Taking cues from architectural lighting, new access point mounts install in the ceiling,
much like recessed lighting.

The ceiling is an ideal location for mounting access points, however, different ceiling tile styles and finishes present a challenge to the installer to create an aesthetic, professional installation. With Oberon's Model 1044, a cutout is made in the ceiling tile tracing the shape of the access point. A galvanized steel back-box is placed above the ceiling tile, and a white trim is placed around the access point. The access point is attached to a universal mounting T-bar which is pressed into the back-box for a finished recessed look.

Many WAP manufacturers recommend WAPs be mounted in a horizontal orientation. Secure APs from most manufacturers in areas where wall mounting may be required, such as residence halls, hotels, and other hard lid venues. The WAP is partially recessed into the right-angle bracket, exposing only the antenna face of the AP. Conduit, raceways, and cable can be terminated in the bracket. The WAP can be locked in place using the manufacturer's locking features.
